Acting Is Harder Than Jack Harlow Thought

Our condolences go out to Jack Harlow, who only recently learned that starring in a movie is difficult. Harlow is co-starring in a new movie with Matt Damon and Casey Affleck, despite the noted non-success of his previous project, a White Men Can’t Jump remake, and he’s learning that acting can be difficult. “Shit got killed,” he told Variety regarding White Men. “I’ve got to get better if I really want to do it. It’s tough. It’s harder than I thought.” While we would have normally recommended Harlow take a class in the Adler or Meisner techniques, he opted to star alongside two Oscar winners in Instigators. “I felt privileged to be surrounded by that level of talent so early in my career,” he said, when asked about starring with Affleck and Damon. “How did I get over here?” Because you were charming to Saweetie and Chicken Shop girl, Jacky boy! It’s that easy.
